Curren$y

After watching him drop two mixtapes, two independent records and two proper studio albums since just last year, its easy to respect Curren$ys work ethic. But the grind would be nothing without his effortlessly nimble verses and airy, instrument-rich beatstwo things the New Orleans emcee has in spades. Last years Pilot Talk II was almost exclusively produced by Ski Beatz and stands mostly chorus-less with an increased focus on the melody and verse. Following a path similar to friend and frequent collaborator Wiz Khalifa thats heavy on the three Ws (wealth, weed and women), Curren$y is an equally talented if less radio-friendly proponent of unassuming, everyday-dude stoner rap.
